Yule McGregor is endowed with so much mana that made her a powerful mage in the group of Solstice Archmage. Being a commoner with a poor background. Many Aristocrats look down on her and doubt her skills when she becomes the Captain of the HOLY ARCHMAGE KNIGHT on the Kingdom of Solstice. Until the kingdom is jeopardized due to the Demon's threats who have wreaked havoc on the Kingdom of Solstice, the HOLY ARCHMAGE KNIGHT takes action. However, after they beat the demon, Yule died as a result of a grievous injury that no one could heal. but... Despite her accomplishments, she died with deep regrets. she regretted not being able to experience everything she wanted. because she was preoccupied with the responsibilities of being a Captain at such a young age. "If I had another chance, I'd like to live without regrets." As she reincarnated in the body of a child, that has no magic. will she be able to fulfill all of her desires? In the body of the child that cannot do magic, will she be able to live to the fullest? As a powerful mage in the Kingdom turned into a powerless youngster. will she be able to live without regret?
"Eros....you're truly a Demon...Eros, This is enough playtime."
Yule said after she draw her ice crystal sword and pointed at Eros.
Regardless of her damaged body. Her energy radiated throughout the field. Her fiery blue eyes are fixed on Eros, and you can see her rage. He causes havoc in the kingdom and many individuals were killed while struggling to fight for their life.
Due to Yule's injuries, the demon cannot move, not even a flick of a finger.
All troops who fought Eros and his demon hordes have been severely injured, including the Captain.
Demon ravage/hordes: any kind of monster that a demon has summoned.
*Uurrkkhhgg*
"I guess it's in your nature to wreak havoc, and now your time has finally arrived," she said.
The demon begins speaking the demonic language.
(As the time may come, I shall...
*cough* *cough*
...return to you)
Yule is well aware of it. she stared the demon and give a cold expression. The devil smirks, and you can feel the desire to murder devastation, and anguish in his crimson eyes.
Before she stabs him the ice crystal sword.
"Arrrrggghhhh!! You bitch!!" Suddenly emerge in front of her. Eris is the Chaos Princess. Eros's sister.
"Captain!!" Jack yelled at Yule to warn her of Eris's impending onslaught. As Eris prepares to attack her with her black crystal blade.
However, before the blade strikes her armor, she produces her immense aura and force to stop the blade, causing it to disperse all over the place. Yule widens her eyes as she sees an entrance to stab Eros.
She pierced the demon's heart with her ice crystal sword right away. Causing him to die, but then Yule notices Eris touching her chest. They made eye contact with one another. Yule can see Eris's rage and malice in her crimson eyes. But Yule's determination to preserve the Kingdom and its people is even greater.
(You were going to perish and never return. You murdered my brother and now paying the price with your life...) Eris speaks in a demonic language. stared at Yule, smirking while tears falls down in her face.
She then snatches his brother and vanishes, leaving just her ice crystal sword behind.
"Captain! We won!" Annah said full of tears. They were truly injured because of the berserker demon Eros.
"Captain. We shall celebrate our victory. You just saved the world!" Leo said and causes the other holy knight and mages to start shouting victory
But Yule remained where she was, staring at the spot where she had pierced her sword to Eros. Her sword is gradually fading. She stared at it so intently that all of her squad members began to realize something was amiss.
"Captain?" Annah started to walk towards yule
But before Annah reaches yule.
...She collapsed.
Her squad members panicked as she fainted. She's coughing up blood, suffers from severe internal injuries because of the fight with Eros and the demon ravage.
"Captain! Please hold on." Annah spoke forward, and she began doing healing magic. Yule is surrounded by healing magic circles that are working to repair her wounds and internal ailments. However, the magic appears to not affect her.
"Aaaarrrghhhh!" Yule is in excruciating pain, shouting, as she touches her chest.
"In her chest, hurry Annah!" Elijah shouted, Annah instantly opened her armor to inspect her chest.
And it was then that they discovered the small black crystal strewn throughout her chest and beginning to spread in her veins.
Annah instantly placed her palm on top of her chest and incanted a healing spell. However, it does not appear to have any impact. Yule is trying to cope with the amount of anguish she is experiencing.
Annah started crying and panicking.
"It doesn't seem to have an effect! her body is not responding to my magic!" she shouted.
"Jack! Elijah! What shall we do?" Annah said. Eli holds Yule's hand
"Just keep trying, Damn it!" Jack shouted.
"Yule, don't leave us behind, okay? hold on! just hold on!." he said while the tears fall on his face.
**************************************
Yule's POV
It's...
...cold.
...I never knew that I can feel this kind of cold.
....Everyone is crying
... I can hear them.
"It doesn't seem to have an effect! her body is not responding to the magic!"
"Jack! Elijah! What shall we do?"
"Just keep trying, Damn it!
"Yule, don't leave us behind, okay? hold on! just hold on!."
...Is this the end for me?
... I haven't lived my life to the fullest.
... I saved the world from that Demon.
... I killed him.
But at the same time. I was going to die.
Not that I'm afraid. It's just that...
... I can't fulfill my dreams for myself anymore.
...To serve the kingdom
...to be with my friends at the happiest moments.
...to live and fall in love.
...to build a family and settle down.
...I don't want to die just yet.
...Just give me a chance. A chance to find myself in a state of happiness.
...Just give me a chance to live and live a life that I don't regret until my very last breath.
...Please
...God.

"The city continues to prosper. The kingdom is more peaceful isn't it, Captain?" Annah said to the newly appointed Captain of the "Holy Archmage knight of Solstice"
"If Yule is here, it would be so much peaceful." As he sighs, smiles and stared at the wind.
'And I wish that I got to say what I wanted to say...If there's a way to have you back. I want to do it... I'll do it to see you smile again. whatever it causes, even my life.' he said it to himself
Elijah is the new Captain of the "Holy Archmage Knight of Solstice". He now takes the responsibilities of the former Captain.
"I'm sure, it is more peaceful where Yule is. I hope she's happy." Annah said. the feeling of loss has not yet disappeared.
